[Early draft, just posting an idea]
After the founding of the Dingguo dynasty, the imperial family had always been short on heirs. When the Crown Prince died suddenly, the three princes of the imperial clan fought endlessly for the throne, plunging the land into chaos. The new dynasty teetered on the brink, and the realm once again faced collapse.
Just as the emperor thought he would have to accept his fate and pass the throne to an outsider, a sky screen descended from above.
[From an orphan adrift in the world to the founding emperor's direct descendant who rose up in revolt.]
[Today, we'll tell the story of the legendary life of the Ming Zhongzu, the emperor everyone's been waiting to hear about!]
As everyone questioned how the late emperor could have a direct descendant when he had no empress, the sky screen broadcast an emperor giving birth.
"I was personally born by my royal father. How does that not make me a direct descendant?"
